I'm with Joe on this one.

I only did a really quick check on the history of the two copies
that we have, but I see the meta-virt variant was added in January 2013
and what could be the first version in meta-oe in March the same year.

The layer index may not have been as helpful back then (but honestly
I can't recall) .. either way we failed to coordinate as a wider community
and managed to end up with two different recipes in the layers.

There's no sense making this any worse than it already is, so I'd say
that we could spend the time looking at the two (three?) recipes, and
get a consolidated variant in meta-oe, and I'd be happy to drop the
one in meta-virtualization and bbappend the same way that Joe suggests.

Thoughts ? We should figure out if someone is going to take a crack
at it, so we don't all go do the same thing :)
